Summer Breeze – Fingering Merino with bamboo

Summer Breeze is fresh, bright, and a bit playful. Lime green and turquoise alternate in distinct color blocks, with subtle reddish-brown speckles here and there for extra flair. It brings to mind sun on young grass with a cool breeze from the water.

This hand-dyed skein is made of superwash merino (mulesing-free) with bamboo in fingering weight, with approx. 400 meters per skein. The merino provides softness and elasticity, while the bamboo adds a light sheen and a supple drape.

This base is just slightly thicker than the sock weight yarn I use nowadays. It still falls within fingering weight, but knits up a bit fuller. Perfect for shawls, summer tops, light sweaters, or socks with some extra body.

Due to the larger color blocks, you get a lively, almost striped effect in stockinette stitch. The combination of fresh green and teal makes this a real eye-catcher without being loud.

These are the last two skeins. Re-dyeing on this base is not possible. Once they’re gone, they’re gone.
